Lauren Jensen of Bend Authors Books on How to Plan a Wedding or Elopement During a Pandemic
Planning a wedding or elopement during these unprecedented times can be difficult. Bend author Lauren Jensen took the opportunity to write a series of books to share her insider knowledge.
“I have been living in Bend for the last six years,” Lauren says. “When COVID hit, I was put on furlough from my event management position at a high end resort. That gave me the time to write a workbook series to help couples plan during this crazy time!” Consider one of these books as an engagement gift!

This workbook will give you solutions, timelines, checklists and materials for you to succeed, and there is enough space for you to come up with your strategy to thrive. It’s time to get organized and take your vision to the next level.” For all the COVID couples ready to get hitched, this your ticket to planning the big day.

Lauren Jensen grew up on Bainbridge Island, a small island a ferry ride away from Seattle, Washington. Her family owned and operated a thriving restaurant and catering company, which is where her love for events began. Most recently, she managed weddings and corporate events at a luxury resort in Bend. In 2019, she was diagnosed with Stage 3 breast cancer at age 38. Lauren worked until COVID regulations impacted her entire team, and everyone went on furlough. With this new freedom, she ventured to write a series of books to share her insider knowledge to a broader audience of couples.
As her dedication says, “To all the brides and grooms who need a sense of stability during these turbulent times.” She is currently living cancer free, has self-published her first two books, and yes… there are more to come!
